To begin preparing for my photoshoot I started thinking about a model. If I wanted to create a Magazine cover, picking a model was integral. I am running out of time in this project with only about 3 weeks left to finish. Luckily a friend of mine is very photogenic and with my planned hair and make up looks, will be the perfect person to be my glamorous model for my magazine cover.
I created 4 mood boards to prepare for my photoshoot, casting, costume, hair and make up, and location. The casting was pretty simple as I had had my model in mind for a short while. Costume was quite simple as well as my receipts would cover the majority of the body. All I needed my model to wear was a simple black leotard, my model being a dancer had plenty of these of easy access to her. I thought about make up and hair for a while and came to the conclusion that it was best for her to stay somewhat natural with a small amount of foundation to ensure her skin was clear and a small amount of eyeliner and mascara. My model is 17 and therefore somewhat younger than the models you expect to see on globally known magazines like vogue for example. I wanted my audience to be adolescent as they are the most open to change, and therefore I wanted to reflect this age in my model. For location I also wanted it to be simple as the main focus is the receipts covering the model and therefore I don't want a background with a lot of things going on that may detract attention from the main message of the cover.
